Hamburg semis

18.05.2007 | Tennis

Roger went through a mid-match low before getting his 15th straight win at the Hamburg Masters on Friday, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3, in the quarter-finals over Spain’s David Ferrer.

By winning in 1 hour 46 minutes in front of a large 10,000-strong crowd, Roger also kept his perfect record against Ferrer. He has won all their seven meetings, but Friday marked the first match in which he dropped a set against Ferrer.

Roger was in command early on, taking the first set with two breaks. But he was derailed in a second set which saw seven breaks of serve, with our star dropping serve on four occasions and ending the set with a backhand error. Luck and experience brought him back on track in the final set. A netcord and an ace allowed him to hold for 4-3, he broke for 5-3 in a long game and then served out the match at love in the next game.

Hmm..really enjoy the happiness your match brought to me,though a little worried in the second set.Luckily you came back in the third set.Wish you good luck in today's match with Moya and prepare for the next match with Nadal

...well done! Just what I've expected..you'll surely win this match! I want to watch the replay because I havent watched the whole game. Well, here in our country they show replays of your game. (.^__^.)
